Da Camera Presents "Vienna 1828: Schubert’s Invitation Concert"

eventdetail

It was not until the last year of Schubert’s life in 1828 that a public concert in Vienna was devoted solely to this extraordinary composer’s works, a program at the Gesellschaft that presented vocal, choral and chamber works. Da Camera recreates this historic musical event on period instruments including an 1820's Viennese-style fortepiano.

Artists included are: Nicholas Phan, tenor; R. J. Kelly, horn; Jennifer Frautschi, violin; Tanya Tomkins, cello; Pedja Muzijevic, fortepiano; and the Houston Chamber Choir, Robert Simpson, music director.

Repertoire will include selected songs including Auf dem Strom for tenor, horn and piano; Standchen (D. 920b) for contralto and chorus; Schlachtlied (D. 912) for double chorus of male voices; and the Trio No. 2 in E-flat Major (D. 929).
